But sometimes you’re limited to a budget. We found the best hotel rooms in America that cost under $250 per night. Whether they’re small boutique hotels or big-city grand hotels, these properties offer comfort and style for a reasonable price. 1/ ATLANTA: The Ellis Hotel ($108) Ellis Hotel 76 Peachtree Street NE, AtlantaWhat you get: Deluxe King room Amenities: Gym, free Wi-Fi Don’t skip over this charming boutique hotel in historic downtown Atlanta. The Ellis Hotel, located in the same building that was once destroyed during the Winecoff fire of 1946, recently underwent a $28 million renovation to bring it into the 21st century. All 127 rooms feature modern amenities and the in-house restaurant serves up farm-to-table cuisine that would please any traveling foodie. 2/ BOSTON: The Liberty Hotel ($249) Facebook/LibertyHotelBoston 215 Charles St., Boston, MAWhat you get: Deluxe room Hotel amenities: Gym, concierge, five restaurants and bars, free bike rentals, and free Wi-Fi Formerly the Charles Street Jail, the Liberty Hotel has been transformed into a chic designer hotel which still pays tribute to its prison past. Even the most basic rooms here, called deluxe rooms, come with luxe amenities like plush bathrobes, Molton Brown bath products, and Wi-Fi. Rates for the most basic room start at $249, but are often much higher. 3/ CHARLOTTE: The Blake Hotel ($179) The Blake Hotel Charlotte 555 South McDowell St., CharlotteWhat you get: Standard 2 Double Beds Amenities: Gym, indoor/outdoor pools, Wi-Fi (only free in lobby) At more than 300 sq. ft each, standard rooms at Charlotte’s Blake Hotel leave plenty of space to stretch out after a hard day. Each bed comes with a down comforter and is accented with modern leather furnishings, plus cool extras like the iPod dock in every room. The Blake is a no-brainer option for business travelers, given its proximity to the city’s business district. Each of the hotel’s 610 rooms were remodeled in April 2012. 4/ CHICAGO: ACME Hotel Company ($229) ACME Hotel Company 15 East Ohio Street, Chicago, ILWhat you get: Standard King room Hotel amenities: Gym, restaurant, concierge, business center, and free Wi-Fi For $229, you can stay in a modern, edgy, and tech-savvy 208-square-foot standard king room, which comes with Internet ready smart flat screen TVs, state-of-the-art audio systems, and complimentary Wi-Fi. There’s cool art on the walls and luxe bedding. 5/ CINCINNATI: 21c Museum Hotel ($199) C21 Museum Hotel in Cincinnati 609 Walnut Street, Cincinnati, OHWhat you get: Deluxe double queen Hotel amenities: Spa, gym, restaurant, bar, museum, business center, shop, and free Wi-Fi The Deluxe Double Queen, the most basic room, is around 350 square feet and has two queen beds, flat-screen TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, and iPod docking stations. For just $40 more, you can stay in the next category of room, the Luxury Double Queen, which is slightly larger. 6/ DALLAS: Hotel Indigo ($82) Hotel Indigo 1933 Main St., DallasWhat you get: Leisure King bed Amenities: Gym, free Wi-Fi With by far the lowest prices on our list, we were charmed by this downtown Dallas hotel’s passion for color and home-style decorating. It looks and feels like a boutique at Motel 8 prices. 7/ DENVER: Hotel Teatro ($212) Hotel Teatro 1100 14th St Denver, COWhat you get: Deluxe room Amenities: Restaurants, business center, gym, free Wi-Fi For a hotel that’s consistently on just about every “Best Of” list there is, Hotel Teatro offers some pretty affordable rates. Book well in advance and browse discount travel sites rather than booking directly from its website, where we found rates were sometimes twice as high as those on third-party booking sites like Hotels.com. The place is right across from the Denver Center for Performing Arts and is a foodie’s dream: Award-winning Chef and Restaurateur Kevin Taylor heads up two fine dining restaurants right in the hotel. 8/ LAS VEGAS: Aria Resort & Casino ($149) Aria Resort & Casino 3730 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NVWhat you get: Deluxe king room Hotel amenities: Concierge, spa, gym, pools, restaurants, bars, casino, business center, shops, Cirque du Soleil show, and free Wi-Fi Owned by MGM Resorts canada goose coats , the Aria opened on the Las Vegas Strip in 2009.

It’s relatively affordable and offers a nice urban vibe. You’re within blocks of just about everything downtown, including the theater district and convention centers as well. 12/ NASHVILLE: Hotel Preston ($118) Hotel Preston 733 Briley Parkway, NashvilleWhat you get: King standard Amenities: Business center, gym, free Wi-Fi, free rubber duckies at the front desk (seriously) Any hotel that features a “You want it, you got it” button in every room and still offers rates as sweet as Nashville’s Hotel Preston is fine by us. This place is super close to the city’s airport, so business travelers will have no problem getting to and from. Sink onto your pillow top mattress or slink downstairs to the Pink Slip bar to relax after hours. If you don’t mind mixing business with leisure, you can host meetings in their state of the art meeting facilities, as well. 13/ NEW YORK CITY: Yotel ($199) Yotel 570 Tenth Ave., Manhattan, NYWhat you get: Premium cabin Hotel amenities: Gym, concierge, free Wi-Fi, drinks, and breakfast Located in Times Square, Yotel was inspired by the sleek, modern, and minimalistic design of first class airline cabins. The basic cabins are tight at 170 square feet but they’re well designed: the queen-sized bed that transforms into a sofa at the touch of a button and the flat-screen TV doubles as a stereo system. 14/ ORLANDO: Waldorf Astoria Orlando ($214) Courtesy of the Waldorf Astoria Orlando 14200 Bonnet Creek Resort Lane, Orlando, FLWhat you get: King bed deluxe Hotel amenities: Concierge, restaurants, bars, gym, concierge, spa, business center, Wi-Fi It may not be a small boutique hotel, but the Waldorf is synonymous with luxury—and you can stay there for less than $250 per night.The deluxe rooms come with flat screen TVs, Blue Ray DVD players, marble soaking tubs, and plush bedding. Located in the Walt Disney World Resort, the hotel is near the parks and attractions, but it’s a bit further from downtown. 15/ PHOENIX: Hotel Palomar Phoenix ($149) Palomar Phoenix 2 East Jefferson Street, PhoenixWhat you get: Deluxe Guest Room Amenities: Restaurant, spa, pool, gym, free Wi-Fi in public areas, daily wine hour (Bonus: it’s pet-friendly) Hotel Palomar is the kind of place we imagine trendy professionals love kicking back after a long work week. It’s in the middle of Phoenix’s shopping and music scene and is close to just about every possible entertainment option in town (the Phoenix Symphony, Chase Field and downtown Phoenix’s shopping center are all nearby). The vibe is contemporary but not overly stuffy. 16/ SAN FRANCISCO: Hotel Union Square ($229) Courtesy of Hotel Union Square 114 Powell Street, San Francisco, CAWhat you get: Deluxe Queen Hotel amenities: Concierge, business center, gym, free Wi-Fi Located in the heart of Union Square, Hotel Union Square is a cool boutique hotel that’s within walking distance of San Francisco’s Chinatown, Pier 39, Financial District, and more.

But the rooms don’t matter much anyway—you’re here for the location. 17/ SAN DIEGO: The Sofia Hotel ($239) Hotel Sofia 150 West Broadway, San DiegoWhat you get: Deluxe queen bed Amenities: Gym, yoga studio, business center, bike rental, Wi-Fi ($8.95/day guest fee) Before you balk at the $8.95 “guest fee” the Hotel Sofia charges guests, keep in mind that comes with access to Wi-Fi, a gym, and in-house bike rentals. The rooms are modern and trendy, and the location puts you close to shopping, entertainment, the airport and the waterfront. 18/ SAVANNAH: The Marshall House ($219) Marshall House 123 East Broughton Street, SavannahWhat you get: Superior Double Queen Amenities: Business center, library, free breakfast, free wine and cheese nights Sometimes it’s nice to take a break from the over-pretentious strobe-lit lobbies of some of today’s ultra modern hotels. The 68-room Marshall House in charming Savannah, Ga. perfectly embraces the history of the area in its decor and vibe. Built in 1851 rkliedtke.de , it’s the oldest hotel in Savannah and used to house Union soldiers during the Civil War. 19/ SEATTLE: The Maxwell Hotel ($239) Courtesy of the Maxwell Hotel 300 Roy Street, Seattle, WAWhat you get: Duet Queen Hill Amenities: Restaurant, espresso bar, pool, bike rentals, free Wi-Fi The Maxwell is a quirky hotel that’s decorated with lots of pineapples, the international symbol for hospitality.

Washington D.C.What you get: Queen deluxe room Amenities: Business center, library, free breakfast, free wine and cheese nights Managed by Kimpton hotels, the Hotel George was D.C.’s first hip boutique hotel. Today it has a lot of competition on that front, but it still stands out for its swanky guest rooms, airy lobby, and free nightly wine hour. The queen deluxe rooms are a bargain at $139 per night, with flat screen TVs and luxe bedding and bath amenities. 21/ Never leave home unprepared… Flickr via skewgee See 13 things every business traveler should pack in their carry-on > Previous 1/ Next canada goose parka
